Sat was just ugly. I rebuilt half the truck Fri night after racing. Replaced hinge pins, F/R arms, installed the garodiscs and dual stage pistons and 0.5 rear hubs. Started with 35 F 30 R for shock oil, and 2.2 F 2.0 R sway bars. Gold Barcodes, some trucks were on slicks. Yellow springs, added 3.5 oz's of weight too.

First qualifier was ugly, got punted early and truck was pushing like mad.

2nd qual, I went back to the 2.0 bar in the front, blue springs F/R. ESC connector busted on the 6th lap, which was fine, truck was now a twitchy ugly mess.

3rd qual for some inexplicable reason my slipper nut backed almost completely off...still no idea wtf happened there...swapped the nut and was fine in the main.

Track used Qual Points, best 2 of 3 runs determined your qualifying position. That put me in back of the B Main...I softened the rear up and went for it. Truck would atleast turn, back end was still loose but it was driveable...I had just worked myself into 3rd and was looking for #2 and the piston/screw/shaft came apart on the right rear shock ending a long long day.

I did get to watch Krio put it to the Losi tho in the A...was atleast a nice way to end it
my truck ran really nice all but the damn step down . i finished 5th in the A main.... damn George kept taking me out he was driving like an idiot

what truck was yours ?
i tried some new products and it worked really great

3 pinned
4 one new thing i tried was Valvoline VV986 SynPower Synthetic Grease in the gear diffs front and rear worked great wont leak out wont brake down very consistent and supper smooth
